About Last Night

Welcome to 2009. Glad you're alive, sober, and here.  
We promised Prive Las Vegas would be the weirdest pairing on New Year's.  

 At least our favorite space in the country hired the quirky Denise Richards and Lance Bass "co-host couple".

Adding to the odd cocktail, Run DMC's DMC honoring his musical soulmates -- Guns N' Roses, ....while DJ'ing (something he is not known to do ever).

As a resolution, will link more. So enjoy a better quick-recap of celeb events coast to coast from friend Mark Malkin over at E!.

Sleep it off, kids.
